The presence of octylresorcinol in the synthetic product of chloroöctylresorcinol, a powerful anthelmintic, was examined. Distillation of chloroöctylresorcinol, at a not very low pressure, furnished octylresorcinol, resorcinol, and chlororesorcinol from the distillate. Octylresorcinol fraction also yielded resorcinol. These facts indicated that chloroöctylresorcinol underwent thermal decomposition and furnished octylresorcinol as the chief product of dehalogenation. At the same time, it was assumed that chlororesorcinol was furnished as the dealkylation product, and resorcinol as the chief product of dealkylation and dehalogenation.
